A
brigade-level sim of the Confederate assault against the Union left flank
at Gettysburg on the afternoon of 2 July 1863. The system is designed on
an operational-level, which re-creates historical command problems faced
by each side. The Confederate objective is to turn the Union line by capturing
Little Round Top and other key goals. The Union goal is to delay the Confederate
advance until their numerical superiority can stabilize the line.
Each
hex represents about 240 yards, each turn about 20 minutes, and strength
points about 250 men. Elevation changes come into play as the the terrain
steepens. There is a basic scenario, a historic one and a Sickles Obeys
Orders one. There is also a solitaire scenario, which is the basic game
with some changes. Optional rules allow for Union artillery & Command
Control. Low complexity.
Game
components include : Mapsheet, 89 Counters and Rules.
Two
players (can be played solitaire). Ages 12 & up. 3W / World Wide Wargames
from 1989 --- Strategy & Tactics Magazine # 129.
